H1.Formal Customs Clearance
Most Goods in Hong Kong are Duty-Free. Click for Details.
As a renowned free port, the vast majority of imported goods in Hong Kong are indeed subject to zero customs duty. However, for revenue and regulatory purposes, there are several specific product categories and procedures that importers must be aware of.
The following details are organized according to the 2026 latest regulations:
1. The Four Categories of "Dutiable Commodities"
While there are no general import tariffs, excise duties must be paid to Customs for the local consumption of the following four types of goods:
-
Liquor: Beverages with an alcoholic strength of more than 30% by volume (e.g., spirits, whisky). Beverages with an alcoholic strength of 30% or less (e.g., wine, beer) are duty-free.
-
Tobacco: Cigarettes, cigars, tobacco powder, etc. (Alternative smoking products such as e-cigarettes are currently strictly regulated in Hong Kong).
-
Hydrocarbon Oils: Petrol (gasoline), aircraft fuel, light diesel oil, and other fuels.
-
Methyl Alcohol: Commonly known as wood alcohol.
2. Mandatory Procedures for Importers
Even if goods are duty-free, importers must still complete the "Official Import Declaration" process:
-
Import Declaration: Unless exempted, importers must lodge an accurate declaration with the government within 14 days after the importation of goods.
-
Declaration Charge: Although there is no duty, a nominal administrative fee (the Declaration Charge) must be paid, calculated based on the value of the goods and subject to a cap.
-
Dutiable Commodities Licenses/Permits: If importing any of the four categories mentioned above, the company must hold the relevant licenses and apply for a permit before each removal of goods.
3. Regulated Special Items
In addition to taxation, certain goods require an additional Import License to pass through customs. Common examples include:
-
Strategic Commodities: High-tech electronic products and encryption equipment.
-
Pharmaceuticals and Cosmetics: Pharmaceutical products and medicines.
-
Food: Meat, poultry, and regulated food items (requires certification from AFCD or FEHD).
-
Vehicles: While exempt from import duty, imported motor vehicles are subject to a high First Registration Tax when registered for use in Hong Kong.

J2. Taiwan Exports to the UK: Taxation Regulations
Most goods arriving in the UK are subject to any or all of the following taxes:
These are typically payable when:
Details regarding tariff and import VAT thresholds, as well as any changes applicable after the UK's departure from the EU, are outlined below.
For goods imported from outside the UK with a value not exceeding £135 (aligned with the threshold for customs duty liability), we have shifted the point of collection for VAT from the point of import to the point of sale. This means that these goods will be subject to UK Supply VAT rather than Import VAT.
The £135 limit applies to the total value of imported goods rather than the individual value of items within the consignment.

"Not including: alcohol, tobacco products, perfumes, and fragrances."B. Gifts
Gifts with a value up to £39 qualify for an exemption from import VAT. Gifts exceeding this value are subject to Import VAT. If the value of the goods exceeds £135, customs duty is also payable.
Conditions for qualifying as a gift:
If you purchase something from outside the UK as a gift for a relative or friend, regardless of whether it is sent to that person, it will be considered a "commercial sale".
Gifts of tobacco and alcohol products valued at £39 or less are eligible for exemption from import duties and import VAT. However, there are restrictions on the quantity of each product as follows:|

If sending more tobacco and alcohol gifts than the quantities shown in the table, the duty relief for imports will only apply to the limits shown in the table, and the consigned goods will not enjoy any relief from import value-added tax.
The relief limits shown in the table apply only to gifts and do not apply to commercial sales. Additionally, all tobacco and alcohol products are subject to consumption tax, even if they are gifts.
Alcohol beverages with an alcohol content exceeding 24% (abv) and un-denatured ethyl alcohol are prohibited in international mail.
Eligible Items:
For students or student items attending full-time studies in the UK for at least 12 months, the following reliefs are available:
Alcohol, tobacco, and tobacco products are not included in the relief.
If you are a student coming to the UK for full-time studies, you do not need to fill out the TOR1 form.
(Our company cannot provide services for this, you can apply for clearance locally.)
For multi-gift packages containing more than one gift intended for multiple people's use, the £39 VAT exemption applies per person, provided that the items are:
If more than one package is sent to a specific person, the value of the goods will be added together. If the total value exceeds £39, import VAT will be charged. If the value exceeds £135, customs duty may also be required.
If a package contains multiple types of items intended for use by more than one person, these items should be separately described and the value should be indicated on the customs declaration. For import VAT, only items reaching the £39 threshold for import VAT are eligible for relief. For example, if a package contains 5 items, each valued at £8, then 4 of the 5 items will be eligible for relief (4 × £8 = £32). The fee will be paid on the fifth item.|

Customs Clearance Issues: Often, the declared value of the package is deemed inaccurate by customs officials (resulting in extra shipping fees for customers), especially when customers declare extremely low values for second-hand goods to avoid inspection and taxes by customs. In order to improve delivery rates and reduce potential inspections, our company reserves the right to adjust your items and declared values. If there are taxes on the goods, you are still responsible for them. If the value of the goods is truly low, you can provide invoices for all items in the package to customs for verification. If you do not accept this policy, please do not use our services.-
